Attention Washington County Community

PHHS Chorus Alumni -- We Need Your Help! We've got some exciting news to share! This past weekend saw the completion of a months-long project Mr. Brad Fore initiated on behalf of PHHS alumni to preserve the amazing performances of the PHHS Choruses. VHS recordings from Dr. Shea Clay's time at PHHS have been digitized and are on their way to becoming part of a comprehensive archive for all alumni to enjoy! But we need your help to make this project even better! If you have any digital recordings of performances from your time at PHHS, we'd love to add it to our growing collection. Don't have digital copies? No worries! If you have any old VHS recordings, let us know! We might be able to arrange for another batch of digitization to ensure as many memories are preserved as possible. If you have anything to share, please email Mr. Brad Fore at bfore@wcs.k12.va.us We can't wait to get these performances back in front of you all!

Special Congratulations: Over the weekend, the incredible Patrick Henry High School Scholastic Bowl team competed at the VHSL State Championships and came home as the 2024-2025 State Scholastic Bowl Runner-Up for Class 1! Their dedication, quick thinking, and teamwork lead them to an impressive finish, and we're so proud of all their hard work this season!

As we wrap up School Board Appreciation Month, we couldn’t let it end without thanking our incredible Student School Board Representatives! These students represent Abingdon High School, John S. Battle High School, Patrick Henry High School, Holston High School, and the Washington County Career and Technical Education Center. By having Student School Board Representatives, our School Board gains valuable insights and feedback directly from students, helping to shape policies that reflect their needs and experiences. In addition, these students provide recaps and highlights of the events and activities happening at their schools, keeping the board informed on all the exciting things going on across Washington County. Thank you to our Student School Board Representatives for your hard work, dedication, and for being the voice of your fellow students!

Attention students of Patrick Henry High School! Please see the information below about our guest speaker scheduled to be at PHHS on March 20, 2025. Also, please stay tuned for more information regarding the family event.

Schedule Update: It has been a busy day for our road checkers, assessing road conditions across the county. VDOT has done a great job of clearing roads of snow and ice. As a result, WCPS will operate on a 2-Hour Delayed Schedule tomorrow, Friday, February 21, 2025. We are aware that some roads, particularly in the Valley Institute area, remain snow and ice covered. Because of this, buses will be running on clear routes only. We encourage parents of teen drivers to check road conditions before they head out in the morning. If slick roads prevent your child from attending school, please contact your child's principal. The 2-Hour Delay will also give real feel temperatures time to rise by about 10 degrees between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. Childcare will be provided at elementary schools for working parents. Please be on the lookout for additional information from your child's school. Our road checkers will be out again early tomorrow morning evaluating conditions. Should a shift to a Remote Learning Day be necessary, a decision will be made by 7:00 a.m. Please note, if we transition to a Remote Learning Day, childcare will not be provided. Stay safe, and we will keep you updated!
